Many thanks for the most recent three responses………………James,it isn’t my real “local” so not an expert but Flybe certainly did some SAS maintenance……could LN-RDM simply be one that was with them at the time SAS decided to ground them for good?

Unlikely, they have four more DHC.8’s on order!
Highly likely, its a Q400 remember! Everyone’s struggling to get rid of them currently! 😉

She arrived under a De Havilland callsign (DHC05) which is why it seems a bit odd, if she is for engineering why was she not useing a Tissili Callsign?

Yes you’re quite right….think it nightstopped in Valencia and as far as I’m aware was just another of the many “engineering” visitors…certainly no pax
